hey everyone , im trying to put a leveling kit on my 2003 yukon slt , now i have read all the threads about torsion keys and spacers , but what confuses me is ppl reccomending ford 150 keys , would that fit on my truck? i have found many leveling kits on line from ready lift to daystar do brands really make a difference? there are plenty of front kits ,what would i use on the rear and would it be the same as the front whats the max i can go front and rear without altering the factory ride. im planning on puttting 20 inch rims if possible....thanks

You can fit 20's without doing anything. But if you want to level...are you thinking of raising the front, or lowering the back? Lowering the back is easiest, just get some new springs and install. The torsion keys are a little more work. Don't know about the Ford keys, but maybe someone else can chime in.

it all depends how much you crank them. The most common combo is aftermarket keys and 1.5" spacers. i went with 2"s because i tow a lot.
